I look at you
And I think of it
And the more I look at you
The more I think of it
There’s a little voice that’s telling me
That something not so funny
Will ruin my night
And all the days to come
I’m insufferable
And now you've stopped reacting
You’re clearing the table
We’ve barely drunk anything
I looked around
But there’s nothing interesting
I say words of love
And I tell you off
I try everything
And everything is wide of the mark
You’re hurting
And you won’t share any of it with me
But sometimes I stamp my feet
I make fun of myself
I’m telling you, if you want
You can pack your bags
But they’ve already been packed
Your bags
In your mind
It’s already Venice
But they’ve already been packed
Your bags
There are coat hangers
Without clothes
I should have thought of it before
Let me, let me, let me go on ahead
I should have thought of it before
Let me, let me, let me go on ahead
Have you ever heard of such a story?
You think that’s how it’s done?
That we finish the evening meal
And then leave?
You say that it’s been days
Since we had fun, since we told each other anything
You say it’s been meals
We haven’t enjoyed, since we haven't been hungry
And it’s true
I’ve been telling myself the same thing, too
For much longer than you have
What do you think?
Besides what makes you think
That I’m not going to leave
This evening or tonight
That I wasn’t going to run away
Oh yes I’m going to leave
And I’m going to run
And I’m going to get past you on the stairs
You’re not the one who left me
We went our separate ways
We went away, each went their way
We didn’t really love each other anymore
Quite simply
But they’ve already been packed
Your bags
In your mind
It’s already Venice
But they’ve already been packed
Your bags
There are coat hangers
Without clothes
I should have thought of it before
Let me, let me, let me go on ahead
I should have thought of it before
Let me, let me, let me go on ahead
No, please wait
I didn't really mean it
I’m not actually leaving
No more than you are
You can’t decide to change my life
Without seeking my opinion
I don't agree
But I still love you
Anyways I’m not very good
At showing tough love
Apparently it’s hell
And besides, it’s raining
Yet you think it’s normal
Something like that
In this starless night
In this sunless town
No, you can’t do that
You don’t know what you’re talking about
Go on, sit down
And come back to your senses
Abandoning people that way
No matter what
You want to leave? Fine by me
I’m coming with you!
But they’ve already been packed
Your bags
In your mind
It’s already Venice
But they’ve already been packed
Your bags
There are coat hangers
Without clothes
I should have thought of it before
Let me, let me, let me go on ahead
I should have thought of it before
Let me, let me, let me go on ahead
